Been nearly a week since I did a news update, and I figured that, while not ready yet, ya'll might enjoy knowing wtf is going on:

Global Rankings
...have been turned back on. In order to combat the "lag" they cause, they will only be updated once a day. Also, a few of the rankings are missing (Wake, Zatar, etc). I'll be emailing EA/IGN about it, so keep your pants on. Please.

Teaser

soon...

And one more thing...

this weekend...

Oh yeah, a day or two ago the site passed the "One Quarter of a Million" player mark again (Number of people who have looked up their stats on the website.)

Aight, that's enough for you.

I tried. He flaked. I said, "fine, I'll do it myself." Plus, mine will track several more stats than what his does.

No no, total users looked in my database right now -- not one day.

Not an RSS feed. Take a closer look.

Soup Nazi: I'd guess the XML is the backend for a downloadable leaderboard/clan display.

well from what i can tell, it's just an XML that contains nickname, pid, ranking, score, time, etc. for a list of players. i'm assuming that this XML will power the "My Leader Board" function, right?

edit: beaten to the punch by midgetspy.
